Ahmadinejad: Turkey affected by Israel’s plots

Turkish media outlets touched upon Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s remarks concerning Turkey.

According to Hurriyet, Ahmadinejad said that a “horrible Zionist current” had been managing world affairs for “about 400 years.” The Iranian president said that Israel reinforced “the dominance of arrogant powers in the region and across the globe” and that Arab countries in particular – he cited Bahrain, Yemen, Libya, Syria and Turkey – were affected by Israel’s “plots.”

Hurriyet says it was a message to Ankara that says Turkey should get rid of Israel’s influence.
